Investigating Knee Biomechanics During Squats and the Factors Contributing to Injuries⭕️
During the execution of squats, the knee joint exhibits a diverse range of motion and may be subject to undue scrutiny as individuals attempt to “correct” perceived flaws that may not warrant correction.
Knee movement can encompass a variety of positions, including extending beyond the toes, remaining behind the toes, or even exhibiting a slight medial collapse.
It is crucial to consider the context of these movements, as the adoption of a rigid approach to squat technique may not account for individual differences. General recommendations often fail to address the unique characteristics of each individual.
Efficiency in squat performance is subjective and hinges on numerous variables such as anatomical distinctions, training experience, load, fatigue, lifestyle, objectives, and prior training history, among others.
It is important to allow for natural knee movement and avoid dismissing a specific method of performing a squat without first contextualizing it. One must also be cautious not to be swayed by preconceived notions of “right” or “wrong” based on opinions propagated by “social media experts.”
